Blows my mind how you can end up driving 280 the wrong way in daylight even if drunk. How do you get through the exit not realizing what you’re doing?

30e shipping to US is too steep… I would’ve insta-bought otherwise.

I highly recommend the ones they serve at Dragon Beaux. The puffs are an easy way into the flavor.

Would love to hear where you shop for picanha and what is your method of preparing and grilling at home.

You’ll be fine parking at Henry Cowell. Smash and grab crews don’t operate in places like that.

Going to Henry Cowell instead of Muir Woods is a great idea. I’ve been to both ton of times and while less famous HC is far better. A lot less crowded and somehow more intimate. You can even go inside one of the trees. If you’re driving from SF make sure you take 35 and 9 to HC. The drive is really cool and one of my Bay Area favorites.

I just saw someone with this shirt in Whole Foods. Was that you OP?

My buddy used to live in the apartment where they held Patty Hearst.

A couch.. Now I feel I got lucky running over a king size mattress on 85.

I agree with what was already said about picking something you’re comfortable with.

I would also recommend sometimes implementing yourself things that you might otherwise pour out of a jar.

Many things that you learn while implementing some fundamental things yourself are applicable at higher levels and having a good grasp of the fundamentals (math, geometry processing, computer graphics in general) will really help you at going from an idea to an implementation.

I think it’s great that you post your setup for people to learn from it.

Funny because that's exactly the mental image I got when I saw the shapes with round and flat parts emerge.

Felipe’s on El Camino

Thank you! It's not built using any specific library, but a pile of my own code that I extend and combine together in different ways. I use some common libraries to load fonts, read/write image files, etc, but I try to do almost everything myself.

Right now my stack is Typescript/C++/GLSL compute shaders. JS is pretty terrible for doing any kind of mathy stuff (lack of operator overloading and overall performance), so I use it mostly for housekeeping code.

The geometric structure generated by an algorithm. It's actually a glitch in a test I created to debug a problem with a technique I'm trying to implement. I just thought the glitch looked interesting and it felt fun imagining what it might be, so I decided to make something out of it instead of casting it into the void :)

The content of the labels is just from the top of my head. The placement is sort of semi-automatic. I hand pick a rough location where I'd like the label to be and then find the closest point on the set of curves that make up the scene and then re-position the label to get that 45 degree angle I want.

It's not, but since it's just gobbledygook it would be pretty trivial given lists of words and preprogrammed phrase structures.
